Product Description:
Beloved by generations, Charlotte's Web and Stuart Little are two of the most cherished stories of all time. Now, for the first time ever, these treasured classics are available in lavish new collectors' editions. In addition to a larger trim size, the original black-and-white art by Garth Williams has been lovingly colorized by renowned illustrator Rosemary Wells, adding another dimension to these two perfect books for young and old alike.
Whether you are returning once again to visit with Wilbur, Charlotte, and Stuart, or giving the gift of these treasured stories to a child, these spruced-up editions are sure to delight fans new and old. The interior design has been slightly moderated to give the books a fresh look without changing the original, familiar, and beloved format.

These classics return with a new look, but with the same heartwarming tales that have captured readers for generations.
Amazon.com Review:
An affectionate, sometimes bashful pig named Wilbur befriends a spider named Charlotte, who lives in the rafters above his pen. A prancing, playful bloke, Wilbur is devastated when he learns of the destiny that befalls all those of porcine persuasion. Determined to save her friend, Charlotte spins a web that reads 'Some Pig,' convincing the farmer and surrounding community that Wilbur is no ordinary animal and should be saved. In this story of friendship, hardship, and the passing on into time, E.B. White reminds us to open our eyes to the wonder and miracle often found in the simplest of things.

I bought this product for my niece who is blind and she has enjoyed the voice on the CD reading her favorite classic.

Charlotte's Web is one of those stories that stays with you always. I'm really happy it's received a new wave of interest, thanks to the recent movie. But it's my hope that everyone will also go back and read the book again - or for the first time. It really is a classic.
It's also the perfect way to introduce children to chapter books. The easy language (and spattering of pictures in many editions) makes for unintimidating reading for kids just branching out into larger volumes. ... Read More

Charlotte's Web must be one of the best children's story every written. It is delightful even for adults to read.
You'll never be able to eat pork again. Wilbur does that to you!! I don't like spiders but Charlotte is very sweet and I could tolerate her in my house.
Enjoy the book. It's great to be a child again.

This is the story about the famous pig Wilbur, who was born tiny, but was saved by a little girl, Fern, and later saved by a spider named Charlotte.
Fern convinces her dad to let her take care of the tiny baby pig until he is big enough to go back into the barn. After he goes back into the barn, he still needs to be saved from being made into ham and bacon and sausage.
I loved the cozy barn life and the animals, and the relationship of Wilbur, Charlotte, Fern, Templeton, ... Read More

**SPOILERS**
Well. I liked all but the ending. It's written in a way that it's interesting, although the details are really annoying, but the dialogue is all very child-friendly and realistic [even though it's animals talking XD]
Charlotte should not have died. That was a horrible ending, and way too obvious, couldn't be any more predictable. If she absolutely had to die, there shouldn't have been all those prior hints, it was just too much. I mean, is there anyone who didn't ... Read More
